Air conditioning replacement and removal in Bodmin
Damp South West winters make the dehumidifying side of a heat pump almost as useful as its cooling. Units over fifteen years old in Bodmin homes are worth replacing before they fail completely.
Replacements in Bodmin can often reuse an existing bracket and wall opening where they are sound. Bodmin is about 20 miles from Truro and falls within our Cornwall coverage. Postcode districts we cover here include PL31.

Planning and permissions
For most houses in Bodmin, the outdoor unit is permitted development if it passes the MCS 020(a) noise check (37 dB(A) or less at the nearest neighbouring window) and stays within the size and number limits. We run that check on survey.
The survey
On a survey in Bodmin the engineer looks at room size, glazing, the route for pipes and drains, the electrics and where the outdoor unit can sit quietly, then the written quote follows. At the survey we look at how each room is used, where the sun hits it and how the pipes can reach the outside wall, then put it all in a written quote.
